Even with a large initial order of say 15 widebody aircraft 5 years from now, that’s only 150-200 pilots in each seat at a time. The majority of pilots on property would probably never see it. Add to that the lack of retirement churn. There’s plenty of 23-25 year olds that have been getting hired in the last several years, that won’t be retiring until 2055-2060.
